What Is The Most Popular Sex Position?

Last month, the online dating site No Strings Dating surveyed their members and blog readers all about one very important thing...sex positions, of course! They wanted to know which sex positions are the hottest, and which ones should be banished to the sexpositions graveyard forever. For good measure, they also asked a few questions about sex in public and sex on film. The answers totally surprised us! Check out the infographic below to see where you fall on the sex positions roulette table.

1. Your comfort level

The best position for you is, quite often, simply what feels the most comfortable. Certain positions will be less comfortable than others - sometimes being on top, sometimes being underneath. "Experiment and find out what your preference is. Don't feel locked into what's expected of you as far as top or bottom. Perhaps if you have a tilted uterus, certain positions or angles may be more comfortable," says Dr. Jane Greer, marriage and family therapist & SHRINK WRAP media commentator.

2. Mix and match

The best sex position when with one partner may not be the same as the best with another. "Finding the best sex position for you and your current partner is definitely a case by case situation. If you try and use a "one size fits all" approach you're going to be very disappointed when it doesn't feel the way you remember it. Obviously, some aspects are out of our control. Namely, the size of the penis and depth/size of the vagina. For this reason it's critical that you take your time exploring your partner, communicating very clearly on what feels good and what doesn't," says author, speaker, and life coach Brenden Dilley. "For men, you're best served spending a lot of time teasing, tasting and stimulating her entire body. If you're thorough enough it won't matter how big or small you are as she'll be more than ready to feel you," says Dilley.

3. Are your orgasms G-spot oriented?

If you're a G-Spot lady (you like pressure against the front side of you body), try rear-entry positions in which your partner enters from slightly above hip height, says Astroglide's Resident Sexologist, Dr. Jess. This may include positions like:

The Frog: You position yourself facedown with your legs bent out to the side so that your inner thighs are against the mattress. Support yourself on your forearms as your partner enters from behind.

The Chair-Bend: You bend over a chair or low table and your partner enters while standing behind you.

4. Are your orgasms more clitoral?

If however, you're more of a clitoral grinder (you rub along the outside or cross your legs to reach orgasm), you want to pick positions that allow for pressure against your pelvic bone, says Dr. Jess. These positions may include:

The Snake: You lie on your stomach with a toy or hand beneath your pubic mound and your partner enters from behind. If you find you're too tight for entry in this position at first, try using a lubricant like Astroglide to ease into the motion.

Scissors: You scissor your legs around one another so that you can grind against your partner's pelvic region.

5. Speak your mind

"The biggest challenge I see is women being unwilling to express what they want when it comes to sex. Men want you to speak your mind in bed! Be open and willing to try new things that are completely out of your comfort zone,” says Emily Wilcox, author of "The Commitment Phobe".

"Trial and error is the only way to go and men love confident women who know what they want. Every woman's body is different and there are no rules when it comes to positions."

The best position for you is, quite often, simply what feels the most comfortable. Certain positions will be less comfortable than others - sometimes being on top, sometimes being underneath. "Experiment and find out what your preference is. Don't feel locked into what's expected of you as far as top or bottom. Perhaps if you have a tilted uterus, certain positions or angles may be more comfortable," says Dr. Jane Greer, marriage and family therapist & SHRINK WRAP media commentator.
